cant find WPA2 on tmobile home internet
Trying to connect video TV to tmobile home internet but they want a WPA2, where can I find this?
On your phone app, touch Network, touch the Plus sign to add a new SSID, give it a name, password, then select frequency (2.4 or 5 or both), pick your WPA mode, then touch Add at the bottom. The Internet Gateway will reboot and there you have it.
WPA/WPA2/WPA3 are three authentication types commonly used for wireless authentication.
You can login as admin and check the configuration of the existing SSID(s). If you do not want to add another SSID, network name, make sure the authentication type for the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz both include WPA / WPA2 or WPA2 / WPA3 for the existing radio frequencies.
It is common for users with older printers that only support 2.4 GHz and WPA authentication type to need to add an additional SSID for the 2.4GHz frequency and have WPA/WPA2 authentication type.
Hope the explanation helps.
On the Nokia, I can adjust it after logging into 192.168.12.1 . By default, its set to wpa2/wpa3.

Creating a second SSID at 2.4GHz with WPA/WPA2 authentication helped me with my old MacBook Pro connecting to the internet! Thank you for this tip!!!
